Coke, thats all you had to say in the first place. Its not hard.
There is a clear difference:
- Logging into internet banking/bebo: One is 'pulled' by a web browser (through user interaction) and then SENDS his username and password. By registering and using your account, you agree to the rules + terms
- Email: One is PUSHED to your mailbox. Unless you practice reading the end of the email and working yourself, you've in most cases you've read the email and then you see the 'conditions' attached. Then most of the conditions state you have to delete and inform the sender....
I've always wondered about the posts that end with something like "all views are mine and don't represent that of abc company".Someone else mentioned the linking of IP address to the person who posted on the forum (that would be the reason Joe Public assumes that the person is an official representative of abc company). There's been a few court cases around that are based on the premise of IP=person who owns ISP account Vs IP=person at computer.

freitasm:I was referring to the RIAA/MPAA cases where they have been hanging around universities, referencing IP addresses and so on from computers in dorms. As for the outcomes, Im not too sure off the top of my head. And nothing to learn from the post?weblordpepe: There's been a few court cases around that are based on the premise of IP=person who owns ISP account Vs IP=person at computer.
IANAL but your sentence is not evidence of anything... "There are cases", of course there are. But what was the outcome? What decision was made?
Put lightly like you did it just sounds like an Urban Legend. The way you wrote it there's nothing to learn from the post.

weblordpepe: I only wanted to call attention to that there were arguments back & forwards with regards to the the user of a computer represents, or who the IP address of the computer represents. I wasn't aware I needed solid scientific evidence in a 50 page PDF. Im sure there is someone more knowledgable about it who can speak up.
Although in any case its still related to the legality and liability related to seeing a sentence on the screen. The interesting thing is to assemble the reasons why an email signature isn't binding and apply them to other disclaimers and seeing what happens.
